3. Marcus Keyes, OG

Marcus Keyes was a standout left guard at Oklahoma State and a crucial cog in the vaunted Cowboy rushing attack, one that churned out 230 yards per game (its highest mark since 2008) while producing the nation’s individual leading rusher in Chuba Hubbard.

The 6-foot-3, 309-pound senior won All-Big 12 first-team honors in 2019. Overall in his OSU career, he started 50 out of 52 possible games, including being part of an OSU offense that produced a 4,000-yard passer, a 1,000-yard rusher, and a 1,000-yard receiver (Mason Rudolph, Justice Hill, and James Washington) in the same year — a first for the Big 12.

The Port Allen, La., native has been a durable leader for OSU’s offense and offensive line, and he’s also been named an All-Big 12 academic performer for three consecutive years.

Look for Keyes, if he doesn’t get drafted ahead his teammate Jordan McCray, to become the third Cowboy selected in this year’s NFL draft.
